We can't even get him sent to the bottom half of the lineup.

Joey just doesn't seem himself since the knee inflammation flared up.

Anybody who thinks that the Reds are going to substantially increase the number of runs they are scoring by juggling the current players in rotation is fooling themselves.

TMBS, I'm sick of seeing Stubbs and and Cozart at the top of the lineup too...

Even if its just a run or two more every few games its worth it.

Phillips, Bruce, Votto, Frazier, Ludwick, etc
